I am a backend dev, but this shit is why I have utmost respect for frontend devs, also because they know how to center a div.

[–] coffee_poops@sh.itjust.works 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

With flexbox and grid there is no excuse for not knowing how to do that at this point.

[–] Beetschnapps@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

There wasn’t an excuse in the first place. It’s kinda amazing anyone can say centering a div was ever hard, especially if you have a computer science degree.

I mean sure it’s different from say object-oriented programming… but it’s frankly weird in a professional setting hearing grown adults with plenty of experience struggle over basic front-end work.

honestly a lot of the people trying to pass as big pros on the internet are beginners. however its the most common issue with css, so its solution is dead easy to fucking find.

with that said, if i havent been using css in a while ill probably have to look it up.

Computer science doesn't have much to do with making websites but ok

[–] coffee_poops@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

Not web sites but certainly web applications.

What's the use case for such a big monitor anyway?

[–] TxzK@lemmy.zip 112 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Being able to fit a java class name in 1 line

[–] nyan@lemmy.cafe 4 points 10 months ago

Eh, I'm sure we can overrun it just by gluing sufficient instances of Factory to the end of the classname.

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

And OOP in general. I also used to be infamous for such things, then I started to shorten the names, including using letters that are obvious to the user (e.g. int w, h; for width and height).

Demonstrating the power of tiling window managers.

[–] stepan@lemmy.cafe 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Niri would rock on this thing!

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

thats a cool concept

[–] scrawdaddy@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

You sent me down a rabbit hole. Now I’m using a hamerspoon script which mimicks paperwm/niri

Liking it so far!

It is a digital signage display (ie in store ads, menus, displays etc) - not meant for desktop use.

Looks like Untitled Goose Game.

[–] Darkraisisi@feddit.nl 4 points 10 months ago

Yeah he played some games on it to show the different scaling implications.

Is Linus still doing the thing with the videos? Huh.

[–] localhost443@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 10 months ago

Lol was pretty much my first thought.

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Frontend devs stopped giving a shit about wide screens at like 24"

It's just massive blank spaces seperating the work area and sides

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

My team cares, mostly because I make them care.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

This is not even an edge case, this is jump down from the edge to find what lies in the dark pit of despairs case

[–] ceiphas@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

And bootstrap's biggest Screen size Starts at 1400 width... 4k be damned

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

Logical pixels != physical pixels

[–] 5PACEBAR@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't want to use Bootstrap in my future project because Twitter. What are y'all using now?

[–] brenstar@midwest.social 3 points 10 months ago

Tailwind is my go-to these days

[–] DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

"Your mom" also works.

[–] Beanie@programming.dev 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

[–] dog_@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Another obligatory 'Fuck Linus'

Step 1: Write a website in pure HTML, can be converted or builded from something like Markdown

Step 2: Style it a little with CSS, as a layer on top, without touching HTML

Step 3: Profit.
